Well things have been insanae around here and blogging has been the last thing onmy mind! Right now Im sitting in the hospital with Brooke! She yet again another staf infection. This time it was bad,withing 24 hours of it showing up she had opened sores. We hope to go home tomorrow. She is on IV antibiotics and is doing well. The hospital andnursing staff are WONDERFUL! I could not be more thrilled with this place.
I am on a hunt for a new job! Maxim turned out to be a joke! They suck! Long story short. I am going to just do some staffing at the hospital and keep doing interviews and find were I am being lead to work.
Jasons job is good, he is finall back to the store by our house so that helps.
I am looking for a nanny/babysitter. I hmay have found one,just havent gottent to talk with her too much yet becaus Brooke got sick.
Ive been home sick,bu things are getting better. i cant wait to come home and visit.
I ope everyone is doing well. I promise to update more oftern.At least every Sunday!

MONSOON
Oh my! When they say monsoon they mean it. Jason and I have been laughing since we moved about Monsoon season, we thought ,wow 3 inches of rain in a "season" whats the big deal? We get that in one day in Oklahoma! So we get hit today! They were shutting down roads because the rain has no where to go (flash flooding), it took Jason almost an hour to go 10 miles. FOR REAL! It went from HOT and like 104 today to 71 degrees in like 10 min, sounds like back home huh? They are saying we will get more rain over the next couple of days. So wierd to think that rain freaks people out around here. The winds get up to like 70 mph, they hit about 50 tonight. Ill keep you posted. Im actually enjoying the sound of the rain right now.
So the laugh is on us.... Monsoon means business!

Hi everyone!
Sorry I havent done this in like a week! I just havent been feeling it. Things around here are totally crazy. We are trying to swing my ever changing schedule and make sure the kiddos are covered now that Jason is back to work. Luckily we havent had to many issues yet.
Brooke is sick still so that is keeping my time pretty full. She has been sick since the 8th of June and just isnt getting better, She was down last weekend and seemed on the upswing until about 3 days ago then started with high fever. It was 103.7 this morning and she was totally listless, I took her to the ER, my ped was on and wanted to see her there. They did blood work and it all came back fine. As we sat there a rash started to develop all over her, very odd. Her fever kept coming back . They gave her some fluids and she perked up a bit until the fever hit again. It was 102.7 when we left there. Gave her some Motrin and she took a 2 hour nap. They said it was viral and it was most likely Roseola. I think they were wrong, I think it is Scarlatina, which would require more antibiotics, so we will watch it for now. of it becomes worse back we will go. Basically because she had been sick her immune system is down so she caught this. My poor baby I hope she is better soon. I have missed 2 days of work over the last 2 weeks.
Lexi is a big pain in my rump right now. She has been so mouthy, I just don't know what to do. I get on her and send her to her room. We will get through this, just like anything else. Right?? I hope.
I went from going to work 2 16 hour shifts to now working 4 days a week, and they have missed up my check 2 times. They have about 2 weeks to get there heads out of there butts or I will be looking for another job!! If I wanted to work that many days I would work in a Drs office! I can get on home care visits 5 days a week and not work weekends!!!!!!!!!! I am so fed up with this crap.
Whatever.
I am missing everyone and getting pretty home sick. I cant wait to come and visit. jason is at work tonight and the girls are in bed, so Im feeling a bit lonely!
I love you all

HELLOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Hey everyone! I hope you all are doing good. Things here are in full swing. I had to work all weekend so this is the first chance Ive had to sit down and do this.
Everyone wish Jay a happy b-day its in 3 days!! I got him a new cell phone today, we got a great deal at T Mobile.
Lexi is having a blast we have been watching the women gymnastics Olympic trial and she is SO dead set on taking "nymnastics". She was ready to go last night told me to find the key and we can lock the door when we are all done! She is too funny. She was running up and down the hall to summer salts and the saluting with her hands at the end when she stood up. It was priceless! I wish I could find my freakn camera! So I found a gym for her here we will try to start her classes in the next couple of weeks!
Brooke is good, she is talking like crazy. Her newest word of the day MINE... and it is everything! We hear MINE MINE MINE all day long! She is fighting back when her big sis takes toys away and most times she wins.... I try to let them settle their own battles, it is very hard not to jump up and separate them,but they have to learn to figure it.
Work is good, they are finally getting my stuff figured out, still not sure of a set schedule yet but hopefully this week Ill know so I can plan things a bit better. The kiddo I had this weekend was a blast. ( kids in that family the oldest is 21 ant the youngest is 3. Talk about mass insanity!!!! 9 kids.... what the crap??? They are all really sweet tho! I have learned alot from the 19 y/o, her name is Nehaum ( they are from Africa-Sudane)< class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">trivia for you! Did you know that white girl jeans and black girl jeans are different? I didnt, hence she calling me really white... LOL There is next time your out shopping see if you can spot the difference! I need to shop for black girl jeans! I have a booty! She is a blast and her sister, the kiddo I take care of is 6 and totally her mini me! They are so funny together!
im sure Ill have tons more stories from work, with 9 kids running around the comedy Im sure will be endless!
Record heat here yesterday 117, just thought Id share!
Love ya!

WHATS UP!
Well just wanted to drop in and hey to everyone. Mot alot going on here. It really has been a slow week. I have to work all weekend, so that kinda sucks.
The waether is HOT here it was 112 today,but, it so different than in Oklahoma, I dont even sweat here, it is so odd!
The girls are good. Lexi is in one of her moods tonight and got sent o bed early. She has been miss mouth today, with lots of nos and i dont want toos. She lost her TV and will not get it back until tomorrow night. Brooke has been too funny the last few days, she kissed everything she can and loves to tease us!
We went car shopping today,but decided to wait a while to trade this one in, really is was for gas issues as everyone knows way to well! So we will just not go that often and stay close to home. Jason will be working across the street so that will save a ton on gas, he can walk, I dont really go anywhere when Im not working so really its not that big of a deal.
I hope you all are stayn dry, I know its been some pretty crazy weather lately.
I love you all!

Fathers Day
What a special day for so many dads. We had a good day, nothing to great,but we spent it together as a family. We went to church and then came home took a nap and took the girls to the pool. Like I said nothing way awesome,but it was a good day for us.
I talked to my dad a couple times today,he was in a good mood,not sounding to down and out so that made me feel better.
I had to work all day yesterday,so, not a darn thing got done this weekend. Oh well it will still be here tomorrow.
Im just kinda sitting here, thinking, of our past, our future and what it may hold for my wonderful kids. Just lots of random thoughts today. I laid Lexi down to bed and stayed with her until she went to sleep. I just look at her with awe, she is such an amazing little girl. Thank you God for every lesson she has taught me. I value those lessons with every inch of my soul. My girls are so different from one another, but, each one has taught me so many different things. Brooke has taught me strength and courage. Lexi has shown me patients and self control.
This man I married may not be perfect,but he is mine. He gave me 2 wonderful baby girls and has given some of the best memories of my life. Today we celebrated him and it was good. He is such a great dad and the girls adore him. I hope one day everyone can see the good that I see and stop judging him for his faults. Not a single person I have ever met is without fault. I thank God he can see past past that all and love us for who we are. I pray each and everyday that i can be more christ like in the way I live my life. My prayer for each of you is the same.
I love you all!
Happy Fathers Day!

So Im a few days past due!!!
No not that way, ok maybe,but anyway!
I kept saying Ill blog tomorrow and then Id get busy and forget,not really forget but just sit down and crash, so here goes!
So my week has gone by so fast. Finally got my nursing junk taken care of so I started working today. I love the new case Im on and the family is just wonderful. He is such a sweet baby,just 7 months old, so that will be fun.
The girls are doing great. Brooke is feeling much better and her staph looks like it is all cleared up. Ive got all her paper work going here for DDD ( the special needs area) she gets help because of her seizures. Just waiting to get all that done so we can get her OT and PT started. She has really just started talking like crazy! Mine is her new favorite word and GO is a close second. She will take my hand and say GO and we just take off walking down the hall or to the kitchen or whatever. She is so funny,but really rotten! She really gives Lexi a hard time!
Lexi is doing good, adjusting really well. She is missing family,but, i think she is starting to understand how far away we are, she says mama _________ can get on an airplane and come and see me now! She is just too funny. She is getting to that stage were she just talks ALL THE TIME. I promise from the time she opens her eyes to when she falls asleep she is talking about anything and everything! We have the funnest conversations now days. She thinks she is so big, and gives her opinion on life and such. She has such a giving heart and I thank God everyday that she is so full of love.
Im starting to get homesick! I figured that about 2 weeks in I would. Its not really Oklahoma I miss, I really LOVE it out here. I miss my family and my friends. I have only made 1 friend here so far, so it is a bit lonely. Yes I talk to dad and both grandmas most everyday,but, its not the same. I really miss my daddy. I cant wait to see him. I am such a daddys girl, its hard being this far away from him. I finally cried today for the first time sinse leaving home. I just want to give my dad a big hug. I can tell he is missing us too, I mean we saw each other at least 3 times a week. Well be back to visit soon. i hope in the next couple of months.
I miss you all and love everyone! Big hugs from us all. I promise as soon as I find my camera, Ill get some pics uploaded!
Love Ya
